Hi Patty,
I have been on this combo. since the end of JUne. I had decided to do the weekly treatments instead of once every 3 weeks because it's less toxic, easier to deal with side effects, and I had read that studies have been done that it is more effective. But, right before my first treatment I was getting ready to go out of town and I had a lot of details to deal with so I decided to have the 3 week dose for the first treatment only. Well, I lost most but not all of my hair---extremely thin to where I had to start wearing hats and still am.
THEN, just recently I found out if I would not have done that one time three week dose I would probably still have my hair---may have thinned a little but not so anyone would notice. Just the thought that I could have my hair right now sure does make me mad....GRRRRRRR. I sure wish my onc would have mentioned it!!
ANyway, I'm dealing with it and hopefully my hair will be back soon.
So.....enjoy styling your hair every day. I don't think this means your treatment is not working.
Blessings and Hugs,
Linda in MI.
